Supports urinary tract health Assists a healthy bladder Aids healthy bacteria balance Cranberries (especially cranberry extracts) contain compounds such as phenolic acids and flavonoids, which may help assist with a healthy urinary tract. It is theorized that these phenolic acids and flavonoids interfere with the ability of bacteria to stick to the lining of the urinary tract, therefore balancing healthy bacteria levels and reducing inflammatory responses that can increase the risk of infections. Another beneficial nutrient assisting a healthy urinary tract is D-mannose. Which supports a healthy balance of bacteria as well as blocking harmful bacteria from growing in the urinary tract. Research has indicated that E. coli bacteria is the main cause of UTI's. Once these bacteria enter the urinary tract, they attach to cells, proliferate and increase the risk of UTI's. Scientists believe that D-mannose may inhibit these bacteria from attaching to cells, therefore, aiding urinary tract health.
